title: A pancreatic metastasis from a colon cancer.
abstract: Pancreatic metastases from colorectal cancer are extremely rare. We report the case of a 74-years-old patient presented with a metachronous pancreatic metastasis, which was treated by segmental pancreatectomy. After reviewing literature, diagnosis and management of pancreatic metastasis from colorectal carcinoma are discussed.
